The upper guide of the new through-bolt sleeve is by approx, 1.8 mm shorter than the previous version. Thus results, with built-in through-bolt sleeve an annular.section for the lodgement of the 0-ring. When tightening the cylinder head, the 0-ring is pressed, through a spacer, against the through-bolt sleeve and its lodging bore in the cylinder head. This assures an efficient sealing between cylinder b.ead and througb.-bol t sleeve, see sketch II, In case of complaint, the new through-bolt sleeve may be installed also subsequently, To do this, remove cylinder head and tap an M 12 thread iBto the pressgd-in sleeve. Heat cylinder bead up to 180 – 200 C (356 – 392 F) . . I.
